Native Language Confusion
Hi there, recently i saw few posting regarding using native language when signing the DV-2004 Application form.
This is my question, hope that anyone can help, thanks in advance.
I am from Malaysia and our national language is Bahasa Malaysia but my mother tougue is Mandarin, but I sign all my signatures in Bahasa Malaysia which is the same signature in English too, even in my passport. In this case, do i have to write/sign my Mandarin name in the application form, because i kind of confuse which language should be my native language.
This is my question, hope that anyone can help, thanks in advance.

It's perfectly OK to sign the application twice in such cases. Once in
Mandarin, and again in Bahasa Malaysia.
